Ravinia School In Vocal Music Something new is to make .its appearance in the vocal music proâ€" gram at Ravinia School. Soon Tonâ€" ettes, bells and autoharps will be combined with singing voicesâ€" in classroom “orchestru",‘undcr the direction of Mr. Robert Nye. This activity will take place in the mu~ sic classes of the fourth and fifth grades, and may be extended into the third grade later in the school year. It is expected to place the learning of music notation in ‘a practical setting. . The cliftdren will have many problems to solve in order to proâ€" duce the results they will want. For example, Mrs. Bodholt‘s fifth grade has written a song which is in the range of the Tonettes and the other instruments. To orchestrate the song the class must, of necesâ€" sity, acquire some knowledge of harmony, and will, logically, use notation to write the parts. ‘Then will come the problems ‘of balance, tone quality, phrasing, interpretaâ€" tion and conducting. The class may decide that the song be played first by all the instruments, another time sung. Then may come a comâ€" bining of instruments and voices, or the adding of still other instruâ€" ments for some special effect. The cooperative solution of these probâ€" lems. provides ‘opportunities for active musical growth. Many music educators regard the use of these small instruments as a logical, step between no inâ€" struments at all and the complex~ ities of the piano, band or orchesâ€" tra instruments. Others see it as an aid to learning to read â€"music, or as anâ€"aid, to the voéal music program.~ The activity involved is known to be physiologically sound Th: judging of many of the facâ€" tors comprising musical talent. in a more objective fashion, the playâ€" ing of several instruments besides singing revealing much more than be told by limiting the child‘s experience to only the vocal apâ€" proach. Mary Elizabeth Grady, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Grover Q. Grady of Forest avenue, and Harold E. Schultz, son of Mr. and Mrs. Warâ€" en Schultz of Northbrook, has been set for November 8. SET NOVEMBER 8 AS DATE FOR GRADY WEDDING The date for the wedding of Eim Place Introduces Sixâ€"man football was introduced into the intramural program at Eim Place this year.
